As I already mentioned in another request, I know about another script, that
is capable of that, but diald dies, if there is no answer in one of the
lines (like here in africa, since we are a bit behind and the local telecoms
company constantly stuffs up the hunting groups.
I would really appreciate, if somebody has a script for a scenario, where it
tries multiple numbers and it doesn't bother, whether the line is busy or
the modem doesn't pick up.

Subject: Dialing different numbers if one is busy
Hello,
Could anyone tell me if there exists a more sofisticated chat
program which I could use to get diald to try different phone numbers.
The scenario is this. Our service provider has several numbers, some
connect at a faster speed than others, while the slower ones are less
frequently occupied. I would like diald to try and connect first using the
faster phone lines, but if that fails, either due to line conditions or
the number is busy, I would like it to try some of the other numbers. This
was quite easy to do with Windows NT, but under Linux - I don't know what
else I need.
Thanks in advance,
Nicholas Waltham
